put potatoes/zucchini in a bowl salted, let stand for 30 minutes. Squeeze and drain out all water. Fry in olive oil, brown (I cooked mine covered for 12 minutes, flipping). Makes 8 pancakes, you can have 2 for a serving. Now, I sliced mine thin rather than shredding and made them hashbrown-like. AWESOME flavor, even hubby liked!

Place zucchini in a colander or on towels to drain off the moisture. Combine the remaining ingredients. Add to the zucchini and mix well. Pour into a lightly oiled 2-quart casserole. Bake 350° for 40 to 45 minutes.

Pour oil into an oval gratin or other shallow baking dish and add some salt and pepper. Add asparagus and coat with oil. Bake at 450° until asparagus is tender and beginning to brown at the edges, 12 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese and squeeze lemon juice before serving. Serves 8. 5 gm carbs/serving

1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups water and vegetable stock granules. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat, and stir to dissolve granules. Add couscous, cover, and set aside until water is absorbed, about 10 minutes.

2. Fluff couscous with a fork. Mix in parsley and scallions and add oil, working it through with a fork to mix well. Season with salt to taste, and serve.

Put 1 cup of lentils (red or orange) into 6 cups of bouillon and add some spices. I like 1 t of cumin and cardomon and 2 t of tumeric. Add 6 minced cloves of garlic and simmer for 45 to 1 hour. You want a thick glop sort of thing.

Then put on rice, couscous, quinoa, what have you and add a bit of chutney.

I cut some chopped up kale in just before it was done and it was great. You will be FULL. This is enough for two.
